Spartan

Offense

To

Depend on Balance, Powe

By RICK FEFERMAN
Unbeaten, untied, and as yet
unaffected by their unexpected
success, Michigan State's gridders
invade Wolverine territory Satur-
day in a bid to enhance their sud-
den national prominence.
Considered just another team
before the season started, the
Spartans have parlayed a highly
balanced attack and a stingy de-

victory over Michigan State, see

fense into a 3-0 record, the only
unblemished log among the Big
Ten teams. They have defeated
two perennial national powers
Penn State and UCLA, in addi-
tion to an Illinois squad led by
All-American fullback Jim Gro-
4 bowski.
Of course the season remains in
its early stage, but there must be
some awfully good reasons for

those three convincing victories.
Foremost among them ranks a
surprisingly potent offense. There
is no triple threat man like a Bob
Timberlake, but nevertheless, all
the elements do exist. "It's diffi-
cult to defense them because they
can hit all ways," confessed Bump
Elliott.
The quarterback, co - captain
Steve Juday, has directed the MSU
offense ever since the initial game
of his sophomore season. Last sea-.
son Juday set school records for,
total passes and completions (79
out of 148), and he remains with-
in striking distance for half a
dozen others.
As if Juday's familarity with
the team's system is not enough,
his principal target, Gene Wash-
ington, rates as one of the better
ends in the nation. The junior al-
ready holds four MSU game and
season marks, including total re-
ceptions for a season, a mark
which seems destined to be im-
proved.

Washington's tremendous speed
is bound to give the Michigan sec-
ondary fits; he set a Big Ten
mark winning the 70-yard low
hurdles and took first in the lows
at the NCAA indoor meet.
Fancy Legwork Too
To complement this flashy pass
combination is a running game
which is rivaled in the Big Ten
only by Michigan. The halfbacks
are Dwight Lee, a solid 190-pound
sophomore, and Clinton Jones,

who is held in such high esteem
that he was voted "Mr. MSU" last
year. He is another of the in-
numerable gridder-trackmen, the
third best hurdler in the confer-
ence.
Jones, who averaged 4.8 yards
operating out of the right halfback
slot last season, is often the re-
ceiver on safety-valve and screen
passes, a situation which has
proved quite troublesome to the
Wolverines.

Anchoring the backfield is the
most pleasant surprise of the
year for Duffy Daugherty, sopho-
more fullback Bob Apisa.
At 205 pounds, this big back has
been nothing short of sensational
for the Spartans so far. The rug-
ged Hawaiian import scored the
only touchdown in the 13-3 vic-
tory over UCLA and was instru-
mental in State's fourth quarter
comeback against Illinois.
Fleshy Flash
And when the Wolverines stop
these offensive threats, they have
to contend with the bare foot of
Dick Kenney, who has connected
on six of seven field goals so far.
Daughtery has threatened to use
him anytime the Spartans cross
the midfield stripe.
"We'll try one anytime the ball
is on the 40; if the wind is in our
favor, Kenney is capable of kick-
ing a 57-yard field goal," he re-
vealed.
Kenney clicked on one from 49
yards out last year against
Southern Cal. The all-pro record
is only 57 yards, held by Pete
Gogolak of the Buffalo Bills.
The Spartans boast three let-
termen in their up-front five of-
fensively: center Boris Dimitroff,
a 224 pound senior who replaces
graduated All - American Jerry'
Rush; guard John Karpinski, a
two-year letterman; and tackle
Jerry West. The other two posi-
tions are filled by sophomores.
Tackle Joe Przbycki was an all-
city, all-state pick at Notre Dame
High School in Detroit. Halfway
down the other guard position is
Norm Jenkins.
Almost Unanimous
Defensively ten of 11 starters
are returning lettermen. The chief
problem Daugherty faces is a fa-
miliar one to Wolverine fans: in-
juries.
Co-captain Don Japinga, who

guard is the largest man on the
field, Harold Lucas, who reported-
ly tips the scales at 286. Mich-
igan's sophomore center Joe Day-
ton may have a hectic afternoon
trying to stop him.
Husky Ron Goovert teams with
converted fullback Charlie Thorn-
hill to provide the Spartans with
adequate linebacking strength.
Three quarters of the defensive
backfield remains under par at

it continue. Don Japinga, Jerry
Jones, and George Webster, all
letternen, are of doubtful status.
Daugherty admits that this week
the team has been concentrating
on stifling Michigan's explosive
offense. "They've moved the ball
without much trouble. It's just
that they've made some mistakes,"
said the coach, referring to Mich-
igan's 11 fumbles in three games.
In Ann Arbor, Elliott has had

this stage of the week, a situation the Wolverines practicing:
which may prove to Blue quarter- sessions "trying to polish
back Dick Vidmer's liking should offense,:' as he puts it.

Jerry Jones, a 156-pound junior

The sturdiest part of an overall
tenacious defense, which has per-
mitted only one touchdown in the
three contests thus far, is the five
man forward wall, comprised of
four seniors and a junior. Charlie
"Bubba" Smith, a mammoth 6'6",

Wolverines' Tom Mack and it

Senator Criticizes NCAA,
Advocates MSU Telecast

Wool

By The Associated Press
State Sen. Roger Craig of Dear-
born said Monday that Michigan
and Michigan State should lead a
fight to pull the Big Ten out of
the National Collegiate Athletic
Association as a protest against
the NCAA's refusal to allow a tele-
cast of the Wolverine-MSU con-
test on Saturday.
He termed the decision part of
the NCAA's "archaic and ireas.
onable policy involving the tele-
vising of football games."
Senator Craig spoke as the Sen-
ate approved a resolution request-
ing Michigan to televise the game
Saturday with the Spartans.
Craig asked H. 0. (Fritz) Cris-
ler, Michigan's athletic director,
if it would be possible to tele-

vise the game last week. Crisler
replied in a letter to Craig Fri-
day that such a telecast is pro-
hibited under NCAA rules.
The NCAA allows a sell-out
game to be telecast only by the
;home school's educational sta-
tion, and only if the program is
shown entirely on a non-profit
basis.
Michigan does not operate an
educational television station, so
it is not able to telecast sell-out
games.
"What gripes me is this dicta-
torial attitude of the NCAA," said
Craig. "The people of this state
are entitled to see this game and
there aren't any tickets to be had
for love or money."

Man has loved to bet, wager, and gamble ever since he saw two

recent times, however, this favorites occupation of man has fallen
upon trying conditions. College betting scandals and pro football
predictors have changed the basic spirit of the sport.
In an effort to . restore this practice to its former glory, the
